The Red Deer and Lacombe communities and their local McDonald’s restaurants raised a total of $36K for Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) and other local children’s charities during McHappy Day.
They collected items for the Red Deer Food Bank during last year’s holiday season, raising over $6,400 for those in need. They also work with local junior kids’ hockey teams to supply equipment, food and smiles.
The Red Deer and Lacombe community showed up, with firefighters, police officers, local businesses and politicians stepping up to raise the highest amount in five years within the area.
The community has had a direct, positive impact on local families with sick or injured children. They helped bring smiles and happiness to those who need it most.
